The Smart Metering Team is responsible for monitoring and troubleshooting our Smart Metering solution. The team is the first touchpoint for service management and a gateway into the rest of the networks team.
This is a key role providing front line operational capabilities in a 24x7 NOC environment, monitoring live operational alert screens and dashboards, raising trouble tickets, resolving faults where possible, and managing the escalation process where required.
We require a candidate skilled in Linux/Unix administration with experience in cloud solutions (ideally Azure).
As we move towards a Cloud platform, you need to ensure that availability and performance targets, set out to deliver business critical services, are responded to in a timely manner. For the cloud platform and for those services that remain on premise, it is essential to put the customer at the forefront of everything that you do, ensuring that any decision made is in the best interest of the customer experience. You will be working in a 24x7 environment on a variable shift pattern. We will be looking for you to be a SME on Azure monitor, working closely with the Design teams to understand the new Azure solution and then share and embed that information into the 1st line team alongside monitoring Azure and the on premise solution.
This role operates on a 7 day 24x7 shift pattern; the incumbent would work 7 days on, 7 days off.
This role is initially a 12 month FTC role.
